COM Port Splitter
-
Version
5.0.119
With COM Port Splitter you can split one real port
into several virtual ports, join real ports into one
virtual, and redirect the serial traffic from real
port to another real or virtual. You can also share
one real serial port among several applications so
that they will receive the same data from one serial
port simultaneously. You can also join several ports
under one name and let applications switch among the
free ones.
COM Port Splitter is very good at splitting any
hardware COM port into multiple virtual COM ports, so
that each of them behaves exactly like the original
port and has the same name. All virtual ports receive
any data that is received by the original port at the
same time. For example, COM Port Splitter can let a
single serial device interact with multiple
applications at the same time.
Another job COM Port Splitter can do for you is join
some real COM ports into one virtual port, which is
rather useful when you need some application to handle
multiple serial devices simultaneously. All data
received by one of the joined COM ports is instantly
forwarded to the joining virtual port and to the
application, and vice versa.
It is also possible to redirect all serial traffic
from a hardware COM port to another COM port (hardware
or virtual) with COM Port Splitter, meaning that any
data sent to the redirected port is immediately
received on the port you redirected it to. You may
need this in case you are using some software with
very strict serial-port settings and instead of
figuring out how to modify those settings you can just
redirect the data traffic to it.
Besides, COM Port Splitter is essential for creating
complex bundles of real and virtual serial ports and
interconnecting them as you wish, therefore enabling
data exchange between those ports.
